RBC Race for the Kids

Why We Run

1.25M

As many as 1.25 million young Canadians struggle with mental health issues such as anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, depression and addictions. By age 25, the number will increase to 7.5 million.

2.5 Years

For some youth and families in Ontario, the wait for mental health services can be as long as 2.5 years.


Sunnybrook's Family Navigation Project aims to change this.
